FORBES '30 UNDER 30' LIST.

I am very excited to have been named one of the top 30 people under 30 in Finance by Forbes Magazine. The list, which is released annually by Forbes, gives the names of the 30 individuals who they believe are shaping the world of finance.

I am deeply honoured to be chosen. The list includes incredible talents. As the only academic on this list, I hope my research will have the real-word impact needed to justify the award by improving people’s financial decisions and improving the wellbeing of society at scale.

BBC World News: Behavioral Economics of Plastic Bag Tax.

A recent BBC World TV interview where I discusses the plastic bag tax and why this has been so effective. I also explain the research underpinning how this charge might work to 'nudge' consumers in other areas of public policy.

Interview in Wall Street Journal

A summary of my recent research on money and happiness appeared in today's Wall Street Journal. It highlights the important role of cash (as opposed to overall wealth) on helping people feel financially secure and therefore more satisfied with their lives. It also discusses what are the "right" type of purchases for different kinds of people to help improve their wellbeing. Purchases that help makes one person happy, may not do so for another.

Fast Company - Article on Spending and Happiness

"New studies have provided compelling evidence that there is real value in some kinds of material purchases. In a study that was published in Psychological Science in April, researchers found that people were happier if they spent on things that matched their personality. The researchers looked at bank transactions of more than 600 individuals, all of whom anonymously filled out a questionnaire about their personality type and life satisfaction. The happiest people in the study seemed to be ones who spent more on things or services that were in sync with their personality type. For example, an outgoing person would love to blow his cash at a pub, but a more introverted person is likely to be happier spending that kind of money on books.

Joe Gladstone, a co-author of the study and a PhD candidate at the University of Cambridge Judge Business School, Cambridge, says that this work does not assume, like some of the studies that have compared experiences with material goods, that there is one rule to happiness. "I think it’s more likely that for some people experiences would make them especially happier and for some people, they wouldn’t," says Gladstone."

My research paper with co-authors Sandra Matz and David Stillwell, received a wide range of global media coverage when it was published in April 2016. Below are some of the highlights of this coverage.
